This round was very consistent, very clean. I don't think you can do better for price in a brass cased round. Shooting in a Daniel Defense m4v11 they were flawless. Definitely ordering more.

I've shot PMC ammo for years on the range, for .223, .45acp & 9mm, never had a misfire or failure to feed on any of my guns. Korean ammo is the only foreign ammo I'll buy!
J A said:
I have not shot any of this ammo as of yet because it is down the line in my rotation. But I was comfortable purchasing PMC ammo as I've never had any bad ammo from the company. The price was right at the time so it was a good buy for me. I look forward to purchasing ammo from your site again, thank you...
Dave said:

Matthew said:
The Ammo is great, but the one hitch in my "Giddy-up" is: The ammo on the website reads "FMJ-BT", but what showed up at my door was regular FMJ. I'll still shoot it, but I'll be wary, before I order from here.

Zero issue with this rounds performance, even with my limited rifle experience I was able to get 1 MOA accuracy out of my AR15 style rifle.

Bullet Points: .223 Ammo

Released to the civilian market in 1964 for hunting varmints and predators, it only took the United States Air Force one month to start using the .223 Remington cartridge in their new M-16 rifles.
Its mild recoil is what has made .223 ammo for sale so popular among hunters of small vermin to medium-size predators up to 300 yards. However, many areas do not allow the .223 to be used for deer hunting due to inhumane harvesting.
Popular in competitive shooting, the .223 Remington can be fired in Service Rifle and F-Class matches – which involves shooting at ranges as great as 1,000 yards.
Many law enforcement agencies use the .223 Remington in place of the 12 gauge shotgun when longer shots or more precision is needed, as well as urban sniping operations.
